The pictures all told a very different story.

Actually, the protests here should make other people take note. The militarized police need to leave that Robo Cop gear at the station unless we're being invaded. Boyd was peaceful until some asshole threw a flash-bang grenade at him. At that point, he knew they were out to get him, poor bastard.

Relations with the cops in this town have been tense for a long time and went to a slow boil after OWS was crushed. The Boyd shooting just blew the lid off.
